Correlation technique
Adopt the number of users of radio communication little by little to increase.Wireless wide area network via mobile switching centre (MSC), other switch, and other element serve this class and call out.
In order to keep MSC and other switch not to be tending towards the state that overloads, new permission of calling out is controlled via the processing procedure that is called as " call admission control ".In this way, can provide some assurances aspect the call treatment delay to calling out by the handled a big chunk of switch.For example, service quality (QoS) is measured and can be established (for example calling out the call setup time-delay that will stand less than 200ms), and can come by the control for new calling to measure for the call setup guaranteed qos in the process.Call admission control relates to reduction (or inhibition (throttle)) and calls out arrival.In brief, before handling, abandon some callings, rather than cause system saturated potentially by attempting handling calling with call admission control.
Conservative call admission control strategy is that cost just can prevent the switch overload with the throughput.But the throughput that can increase call admission control strategy initiatively can not satisfy QoS measures (owing to not detecting congested fast enough).
In distributed system, based on the ability of peer-entities and the communication protocol in the middle of those entities, inhibition can be carried out with a plurality of methods.For example, peer-entities perhaps can receive via control/signaling protocol and clearly feed back to reduce proportion of calls, and perhaps peer-entities may have to secretively infer not by the time expiration of the calling of switch responds.Some systems may be conceived to the element (promptly the most approaching saturated) of use at most effectively, and suppress in view of the above to call out.
For the controlling call permission, software logic is used to determine generally when arrive the calls that enters switch or MSC has the danger that makes switch saturated.The call admission control logic prevents that with " abandoning calling " this class is saturated.Up to now, many call admission control strategies are by special setting.In the art, need control call admission with improved method and system to network.
Summary of the invention

Embodiment
The preferred embodiments of the present invention provide with fineness and have been controlled at the method and system of controlling in the wireless wide area network the call admission of switch.Within some embodiment, to call featuresization, and each classification all has optimised correspondence is measured according to classification.For example, this is measured may be service supplier's income, perhaps may be the ratio (being that profitability is measured) of serving the revenue and costs of this class type of call.Can calculate the optimum inhibition ratio of each type of call in view of the above, thereby improve income to the service supplier.Within a preferred embodiment, the inhibition part is determined the optimised processing cost S that measures r and call out based on the arrival rate λ i of corresponding type of call.These parameters consider that in view of a SC service ceiling this SC service ceiling is a rank, may cause saturated maybe may the obstruction of switch to satisfy the rank that QoS guarantees if surpass this rank.The call admission control logic is used and is suppressed part so that call out according to their classification inhibition then.
Fig. 1 has illustrated exemplary wireless wide area network, can realize embodiments of the invention therein.The object lesson of Fig. 1 is a simplification 3G network according to the CDMA2000 suggestion, and one of ordinary skill in the art will be understood that the present invention can be implemented in the telecommunications network in any use call admission control strategy.
In this exemplary network, mobile radio station 102 is communicated by letter with Radio Access Network (RAN) 104 by air interface 103.RAN104 comprises base transceiver station (BTS) 106, and itself and mobile station radio are got in touch with, and carry out fixed line communication with base station controller (BSC) 108.BSC108 controls the wireless device that is used for mobile station communicate.These functions are called as provided for radio resources management together, and it contains the transfer management of the roaming mobile station 102 in the BSC and the Radio Channel Assignments that is used for speech and data service.
RAN104 communicates by letter with packet data serving node (PSDN) 116, and packet data serving node (PSDN) is communicated by letter with IP backbone network 118 subsequently.
BSC communicates by letter with mobile switching centre (MSC) 112, mobile switching centre (MSC) 112 be the local end office (EO) of a standard and have call processing software (comprising mobile management) and (selectable) can run time version the hardware of conversion and rate adaptation function.For example, some embodiment of the present invention can use in U.S. Patent Application Serial Number 09/721, the MSC of explanation in 329, it was applied (its content is all introduced for your guidance at this) and is given agent of the present invention with improvement project described here by the agency on November 22nd, 2000.Equally, other MSC can use together with improvement project described here.
In general, the signaling information between BSC and the MSC is to pass on according to the agreement of predesignating, and voice/data is then passed on by bearer circuit according to other agreement.Wherein, MSC112 provides mobile management functional.This functional management that comprises the mobile radio station parameter such as mobile station location, mobile phone sign and checking.Transfer between BSC and the MSC is controlled by MSC.MSC communicates by letter with public switched telephone network (PSTN) 114 with bearer circuit protocols with known signaling.
Mobile switching centre (MSC) is via request and the incoming call request from other PSTN terminal point to mobile subscriber of RAN reception from mobile subscriber's call setup.Actual signaling interface depends on concrete network topology with relevant signaling protocol.For example in the CDMA2000 network, the outgoing call from the mobile subscriber in MSC area arrives MSC via the IOS/IS-634 signaling interface from RAN, yet arrives via ISDN User Part from the incoming call of PSTN.In system of future generation, setup requests also can arrive MSC from the PDSN that is derived from mobile phone that allows IP or the RAN of new generation that produces IP operation (signaling and carrying).The concrete calculation task of being carried out by MSC depends on signaling protocol, type of call, caller/callee's information or the like.The total computational resource of MSC uses and depends on the arrival rate of calling at each signaling interface place.
Fig. 2 illustrates a simplified structure block diagram of the selected in house software module of exemplary MSC112.This simplified block diagram is used to help to illustrate a large amount of types of calling out arrival, calls out the saturated potential source of being handled and be switch by switch 112 that arrives.
This structure comprises IP message processor (IPMH) 208 (processing comes from PDSN or produces the message of the RAN of new generation of IP operation), (message, communication session management device (CSM that describes in detail below) 202, visitor location register (VLR) 206, media gateway (MGW) control and treatment 204 and the call admission handled from BSC/RAN104 are controlled (CAC) server 212 to SS7 message handling device 210.
IPMH208 and SS7 message handling device 210 are dealt with the message of the peer link that comes from them separately under the control of CSM202 and CAC server 212.In relevant portion, the CAC server transmits control message via software communication channel 214,216, so that indicate different inhibition ratios for concrete type of call to message handling device.Message handling device suppresses incoming call subsequently in view of the above.For example, if IPMH208 is instructed to suppress the calling of 20% in a certain type call, then IPMH will suppress 20% of this class calling randomly by preventing that effectively this class from calling out to be established within some embodiment.Message handling device also uses communication channel 214,216 to pass on various forms of statistical informations to CAC server 212.
CSM202 stops signaling protocol and carries out session and the mobile management function.In order to accomplish this point, CSM via communication channel 218,220,222 and 224 and message handling device 208,210, VLR206 and MOW communicate.
VLR206 carries out user record at MSC112 for all active users and searches.
MOW control program 204 sends order to the media gateway that the termination and the exchange of actual bearer (voice/data) business are controlled.
CAC server 212 is responsible for the call admission control of system in relevant portion.CAC server among some embodiment is with a part (OAM﹠amp as operation, operation, management and feed system; P, below will describe in detail) form implement.It comprises the logic (below will describe in detail) of calculating inhibition function with effective ways.Inhibition function is utilized for the control of next measurement window and suppresses (it may be controlled with several different methods, for example termly or only when reaching some threshold value).Inhibition function (or value) is communicated to message handling device (for example IIPMH208), so they can actually carry out this class inhibition.As described below, inhibition function can interrelate with the type of call that message handling device can be differentiated.Within some embodiment, inhibition function determines via optimizing process, such as an optimizing process of measuring for the system optimization profitability.Other method of determining inhibition function also can be used, and it may provide the improvement that this class is measured (but perhaps being suboptimum).Within some embodiment, the CAC server is collected various statistic via channel 214,216 and 226 from message handling device and CSM.The CAC server can also be carried out the statistics of level and smooth logic (below will describe in detail) to determine that some is relevant, such as the level and smooth arrival rate of different type of calls.
Fig. 3 illustrates an exemplary switch architecture, and it comprises selected hardware element, and illustrates the hierarchical nature of exemplary software structure.In this case, the call admission control logic is implemented in call admission Control Server 302, and this call admission Control Server 302 is parts of network management server 300.Obtain the detail record of incident in the Event Collector 304 of CAC server 302 from network management server 300.Event Collector receives event detail records from the independent hardware module of switch 112, and it can collect various forms of statistics in this way.For example illustrated, the CAC server can be from SS7 signalling module 210 and CSM module 202 statistics collection information.Network management server is also accepted network configuration parameters and is be sure of that these parameters can be communicated to CAC server 302.For example within some embodiment, the upper limit UB that switch uses can be provided by the keeper.Thereby this use can be the measurement or the result of calculation form of various monitored performance statisticses, described monitored performance statistics for example be the memory at switch place and CPU use, queue length and delay, or the like.
CAC server 302 is through being connected to OAM﹠amp; The policy interface 306 of P system 308 implements to suppress control.For example, the CAC server can calculate inhibition function and this class function is communicated to suitable message handling device and module (for example IPMH208SS7MH210) for various type of calls.Thereafter, message handling device can be analyzed each incoming call to determine its corresponding class and it is used its inhibition logic, for example abandons some in some way and calls out part, for example mode that abandons with Weighted random.
For example for the inhibition part τ that provides i, as ' i ' when being type of call, the inhibition logic in the CAC server will be calculated or determine that corresponding function also will indicate suitable message handling device only to allow the calling part of the classification of admitting.Message handling device will abandon window when corresponding (interval before message handling device receives subsequently control messages) other calling in the time.
An embodiment of logic uses following parameters to determine corresponding inhibiting value:
● P is the quantity of the income classification considered
● τ iBe the inhibiting value relevant with classification i, and according to defining more than or equal to zero and being less than or equal to one
● λ iIt is the level and smooth estimation (hereinafter will to level and smooth detailed description) of the arrival rate called out among the classification i
● r iIt is the income of each calling relevant with classification i
● S iBe to set up the required CPU time of i type call (or being " cost " more generally)
● UB is the upper limit that switch uses, and preferably should not surpass this upper limit, and its QoS that has realized the call setup aspect postpones requirement
All-calls classification P goes up the total income that produces and can represent with following formula.Therefore, maximize following formula and will maximize income.
Σ i = 1 P r i τ i λ i
Yet although the service supplier wishes above-mentioned income formula is maximized, yet they should keep following constraints to satisfy QoS.In fact constraints stated that system cost should be less than the upper limit of setting up in advance (UB).
Σ i = 1 P S i τ i λ i ≤ UB
Effective ways that address the above problem are to change the inhibition variable with new variable.Specifically be by define a new converted variable τ according to following formula i *
τ i *=λ iS iτ i
Then with τ i *The income formula that substitution is total, maximization problems can be restated as follows:
max Σ i = 1 P r i S i τ i *
It is subjected to following condition restriction:
Σ i = 1 P τ i * ≤ UB
Wherein, 0 ≤ τ i * ≤ λ i τ i And 1≤i≤P
Then can be by this equation group is found τ i *Each value, and τ i *Can be converted back to τ i, τ iCan be used in the control messages of delivering to message handling device, as mentioned above then.
Fig. 4 shows to be used to find the solution τ according to one embodiment of present invention i *The flow chart of example logic.Logic starts from 400 and proceeds to 405 then, and in 405, for each classification, just optimised measuring (for example taken in r i) by cost S divided by its correspondence iIn 410, this ratio is classified according to the order of successively decreasing.When measuring r is when income, and ratio is corresponding with the graduation of the corresponding income of each classification per unit cost with descending order.
In 415, carry out verification, to determine whether to be that all categories has been determined τ *If then logic finishes in 499.Logic will flow through " denying " branch road also proceeds to 420, and to the last a classification (having lowest ratio) is analyzed to determine its corresponding τ *Till.In 420, be the current classification i that is considered kFind the solution following formula.
τ * i k = min 1 ( UB - Σ l = 1 k - 1 τ * i k , λ i k S i k )
If UB is thought of as the budget that can be assigned with, then in fact this formula determines whether this budget allows current classification to be served fully, and classification i will be to its τ in such cases *Distribute its corresponding λ iS i..If but service be considered the required entire quantity of classification can not be licensed, then this is assigned as this classification to provide the resource as much as possible that is kept (is that the upper limit deducts all pre-assigned τ *Summation).
In 425, τ *Be converted back to the τ value, this τ value can be used for indicating in view of the above corresponding message handling device by call admission control logic 302 subsequently.Then, logic returns 415, so that consider next classification according to the order of measuring of per unit cost.
In this embodiment, the paging call control strategy has all been forced a QoS constraints on all type of calls.Estimated inhibition factor also is non-that try to be the first and be static.In alternative embodiment, can add to each type of call and use the constraints details.Can also rob with calling and realize first dynamically suppressing.By doing like this, can compare than the calling of booming income with generation based on using bound restriction, preferably abandon the calling that produces in the process than low income.
In certain embodiments, can be the calling arrival rate of various λ after preferably using statistics level and smooth.Fig. 5 has illustrated and has been used for determining in certain embodiments that the calling of inhibiting value arrives measurement window.The length of measurement window should long enough to show the goodish statistical sampling cycle.λ (c)It is calling arrival rate at current arrival window.For fear of false alarm or missed congestion, it is imperative come smooth traffic to call reaching ratio by the arrival rate of considering current arrival rate and past measurement window.In this case, λ (sc)The smoothed arrival rate of expression current window, and λ (sp)Expression arrives the smoothed arrival rate of window in the past.
The smoothed arrival rate of current window comes medelling by this formula:
λ (sc)=w cλ (c)+w pλ (sp)
Wherein, w cAnd w pRepresent current and the weight coefficient of window in the past, and add up mutually and equal 1.Weighting can be provided with and be rebulid by system.For example, w cCan be set to 0.8, and wp can be set to 0.2.Can certainly adopt the exponential smoothing of other form.In addition, calling out arrival rate can be based on historical statistics.For example, ratio can be set to corresponding with time sky or year time.
At the end of current window, the smoothed arrival rate of past window should be approximately equal to the arrival rate of current window, is turned to by pattern:
λ ( sp ) ≅ λ ( c )
Thereby by using said method and suppose that optimizable measuring is income, compare with having than the calling of low income from the per unit cost, the calling that has than the classification of booming income from the per unit cost can differently be suppressed.In addition, because in analysis with cost as the factor of considering, so situation may not be to give priority to the calling with booming income simply.
Similarly, the calling inhibition can be considered other standard such as priority.For example, urgent call can have special inhibition program and passes through to allow this class to call out.As the example of income classification, considered two types user: the user of Class1 has fixedly subscription cost monthly and is allowed to the number of calls " unrestricted " in this middle of the month.Thereby owing to call out freely, taking in for each calling of service supplier is 0.The user of type 2 is not the member of this constant expense, calls out and pays additional income and be based on each.
One of main aspect of the foregoing description is as the formula of the call admission control of linear programming problem (LP) " based on income ".The decision variable of LP is the inhibiting value that is used for various income classifications.Another critical aspects of the foregoing description is the simple linear algorithm that is used for determining that LP " optimum " separated.Traditionally, be to use the polynomial algorithm of high computational complexity to come LP is found the solution.Yet in several embodiment that are described, thereby this class computational complexity has been avoided reducing load and has been strengthened the efficient of MSC or switch.
The logic of creating inhibition function has been described in some aspect in the above description.This term is used to show that the reality that can come the dispensing inhibiting value in many ways is definite.For example, the CAC server can allow logical gate ground or determine that value fully.In the previous case, can make final determining by the message handling device of correspondence.
The above embodiments provide the inhibition part with diverse ways.For example a preferred embodiment uses linear programming method to calculate optimum or approaching optimum value.Yet alternative embodiment also can provide the inhibition part with other method.For example, suppressing part can provide by look-up table, and wherein, one of above-mentioned parameter (for example arrival rate and classification) or all subclass can be indexed in this look-up table or other data structure.
In addition, should be appreciated that scope of the present invention is not subject to the foregoing description, but define, and these claims will comprise modification and improvement to being described content by additional claim.
